It was in stock most days in August 2026, and today 3 of the 5 retailers we track have it in stock. It dipped to $40.83 at Optics Planet for a stretch in August 2026, well under its usual $49.99, so sales do come around. Buying today, the lowest price is $45 at GritR Sports, above August's low of $40.83, so a better deal may come back.
